The Waymaker Program will commence in 2025 at our Carrum Downs Campus. Waymaker is a flexible pathway for young people who have disengaged from school (also known as "school refusal") due to social-emotional reasons.
Waymaker is a place where young people can Belong - where they are known, loved and connected in community. It is a space where young people come to Believe - where they build their courage, confidence and begin to tell a new story. And it is a journey they go on to Become - where they are empowered to grow into the fullness of who God has designed them to be.
Waymaker will launch in 2025 for students in Grade 6 to Year 8. We will then add additional Year levels:
- 2025: Grade 6 to Year 8
- 2026: Grade 6 to Year 9
- 2027 and beyond: Grade 6 to Year 10
A typical Waymaker student has a history of difficulty attending school, usually due to a diagnosed and significant mental health condition related to anxiety, depression or post traumatic stress that is currently being treated by an appropriate health practitioner.
